Energy dwindled hanging by a thread
Today another day I never wanted to leave my bed
And the covers they drowned me, underneath the deep sea canvas of life
The current overtook me with the wonder and plight.

Coffee had its tricks
And hue to bring to the museum
Although it was sunday and the free passes had expired.

I then rolled out of the bed
And out the front door
Forever a meatball
I am forevermore.

ugh. That moment when you realize that the comments you've just liked are super old.

My daughters and I are going on a cruise in a week. So naturally, we plan to watch as many cruise disaster movies as we can before then. Poseidon tomorrow. Possibly then Speed 2. Anyone know of any others?
Wikipedia's list of disaster movies involving ships. If you open yourselves up to movies like "Open Water" and others involving scary creatures of the deep, you have many more options. :eek:
*smirk*

My woman, ladies and gentlemen. She's playing all week. Tip your servers.

I'm feeling like I'm coming out of a weeks-long state of...not really depression...maybe anxiety or something. Anyways. I haven't been productive at all, save the bare minimum. Doing some interesting things out of my job description at work, but only doing my daily stuff enough to keep me out of hot water. At home, just keeping the cats fed and the plants watered, not much else. Organizing home paperwork...fohghettaboutit! I did my taxes. That's about it. Maybe this was tax anxiety, since I did owe this year...

Anyway, on this lovely Saturday, I actually have some energy and do not have any music gigs or anything to do. So I am actually enjoying staying at home, doing some cleaning, working on a stained glass project, cooking, and doing laundry. I even plan to tackle this small table/shelf by my entryway that has a whole bunch of clutter on it.

I shall be productive!

No. Really...

It's because I'm worn out from today's events. My sister got married...I was part of the bridal party.

Last evening, the guard of my apartment told me that his village was flattened in the earthquake in Nepal. His home, thankfully, did not collapse but there are massive cracks in the walls.

Yesterday was a sad day for many people...

Choices. Ugh. I dunno, I don't think I'm a fan. I'm pretty sure I'd be better off without free will, without the ability to choose the exactly wrong thing all the time.

I guess I'm just feeling low tonight...this week...this year. It's that feeling that makes getting out of bed seem too difficult, like setting my feet on the floor is a bad idea because...what's the point? I'll just be doing the same things, the same way, losing the same battles with myself.

There's nothing wrong with my life. God has given me so much, changed so many things, fixed them, healed them...so why can't I just be grateful and glorify Him, instead of feeling like every day is a burden?

There are a lot of steps I should probably take towards fixing this, fixing me. Gosh, that sounds exhausting.

I need SOMETHING to break the monotony that is my life right now. I need a vacation or something. I don't think I can take a vacation being 6 months pregnant though. GRR. I need a break :(

I'm glad you're feeling more productive and energized lately! Sometimes all it takes a some time OFF, you know? We get so tired, and don't even realize what's wrong, when we really just need rest. Good for you, for enjoying this weekend. :)

Ah, so many terrible things happening in the world right now. I'm so sorry to hear of your guard's village. My prayers are with these people.

*HUGS* Don't be too hard on yourself Cris. I feel that way about getting out of bed even when I'm NOT having a hard time. I'll be praying for you.

Extra prayers would be appreciated. Got an e-mail from a messed up friend who is pretty much out of my day to day life, but seems to e-mail every 4-6 months to dump some of his crazy on me (even after he's been gone for almost a year and a half). I doubt he has much of anyone he feels he can talk to and trust, and we were quite close. Can't bear the thought of hurting him deeply by telling him you're not part of my life anymore… accept it and go away, but don't think I can or should let things continue as they are either. So I need some extra wisdom. Thanks for praying.

I know exactly how you feel. I will pray for Godly wisdom to be revealed to you in knowing exactly what to say.

I will be praying for you.

P.S. I can give you some advice but I charge some consultation fees. If you want my advice, please pay the first instalment and schedule an appointment.

I was actually having that problem, every day for about a year. I'd agree that it gets quite tiresome when you're treated more like a psychiatrist than a friend.

Today was an overall good day, and very efficient work.
I think its time to sit and soak up the presence of God tonight :)
That's what I need.
Got off work on time too, I really have angels watching over me :D
_~-~_~_~-~-~*_!
Day off tomorrow as well.
And then it will be may soon and the strange adaptations will cease and all will be rays of sunshine.
And the cool summer nights...
and the stars.
And the farmer tans.
And skewl.
Whopee!
It's always fun to start new stuff.

And I should get new glasses/pairs.
Eye exam time it is.
